Our Take On Cuoco And Galecki’s Game Commercial
Galecki And Cuoco Are Overdue For A Big Bang Reunion
Leonard and Penny started as friends onThe Big Bang Theoryand went through a series of ups and downs before finally settling down in later seasons. In the series' finale, it was revealed that the pair were expecting a baby together. However, in the absence of a direct sequel, those who wondered where Leonard and Penny were in the years that followeddidn’t get a chance to see the pair together again.
While he is without his glasses in the video, it’s nice to see Galecki and Cuoco on the same screen, as if they were Leonard and Penny again.Their on-screen chemistry is still there even six years later, and the only thing missing (aside from Leonard’s glasses) is more physical interaction. It’s unclear whether they are playing only friends or a couple in the commercial, but it doesn’t matter that much, given it’s already rare enough to seethe core stars fromThe Big Bang Theoryback together on screen again.
